im personally waiting for the next Sprint Nexus with LTE.. I figured our little 4g now isn't going to be upgraded much within the next year and I already dont get it as it is.. Lets just hope that Sprint can figure out that damn GPS problem with the LTE we just signed up with..

You think they will release a version for T-mobile or do you suspect they will put both t-mobile's and AT&T's bands on this phone?

the future of the vibrant

Aperently samsung dose not want to update this phone anymore so what will happen to the vibrant
i believe our phones are in the hands of the developers to make roms like ics passon that will be the closest thing to the ics rom that we will get

Well considering my contract ends in october, im not worried about this phone anymore. Switching to verizon

my contract ended a long time ago we jest havent swiched providers

It's old yes, but it never really got any updates. It got 2.2 but I think it wasn't ever an OTA, it was a kies only update that bricked a lot of phones. Ive only used custom roms, but if I had kept this 500 dollar phone stock and never received any updates/fixes for it, I'd be pretty pissed. I don't know of any other phones that got the shaft THIS bad...I cannot believe samsung/tmo got away with this. It was a flagship phone, not some $199 retail phone they gave away........Hell all the other variants have OFFICIAL 2.3...nexus has the same specs and has official ICS....
Thank god for XDA

Actually I got my vibrants bogof from Tmobile so it was 2 for $149. For that price I'm pretty happy with what I got. I could understand somebody that got it full retail or at launch day at full price feeling like they were shafted though.

I got it last October for my birthday, full price (I don't have tmobile)
Overlooked the Captivate because I thought this phone would progress more development wise

I got my 2 phones during the valentines special for free. I love this phone thx to XDA, CM and now ICS Passion. Updates from TMO or Samsung? That ship has sailed... a long time ago.
I don't worry about that anymore, CM7 is running just fine, lets get some bugs out of Passion and we are good to go.

I agree, if it wasn't for team toxic I would have sold this phone a long time ago.

Since im on an old em+ plan that doesnt cover subsidized phones, i paid full price for my vibrant. Barely had that phone for a year and i fully blame tmobile for the piss poor support. Never again. Im much happier now with my galaxy nexus.

Cm9 alpha release for shift???

I've seen posts about cm9 alphas in other threads. Has there not been one released for the shift? I guess these are compiles by folks but I haven't noticed one mentioned for the shift. I was just curious if any of you guys know of one or have ran one. Maybe I have overlooked it.

Evervolv uses a lot of the CM members source code. That's about as close to cm9 as your going to get for now.

Hitting the thanks button is soo much easier then typing thanks!

toastcfh has been working on cm9 for the shift and the 3d but since hes a perfectionist (which is a great thing of course) he hasnt shared with anyone to try yet that im aware of. itll be worth the wait im sure

Rest assured, there will be a million threads about it on here when it's posted. He's working on it still.

By the time it's done and said most shifters will have moved onto newer phones lol.

Gotcha. I agree that its good to have someone with high expectations working on it. The more, the better. I was just curious. It just seemed as if there was more chatter about alphas in the past few days.

Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk

I just got my shift maybe 2 months ago. I love it. However, I wonder how (with CREDO Mobil) I could shift out of it if I wanted to go to the Nexus.
Though, like Vicodan, I am waiting til the ICS Slider comes out. I love having a physical keyboard..., i've tried a number of ROMs and I always go back to the CM7 w/Scary... yep. The others just eat way too much battery life for me.
Please oh please, ICS..., come home soon. It is my birthday week so, if there was ever a better time..now would be it.
Thanks to allt he Developers working out the code! You are all geniuses for sure.

Thanks for the shoutout. As for Credo mobile check the boost mobile thread in Q&A (pinned) I'm currently running mikshifted-G + dodge kernel 1.6. My zip is almost finished uploading. Will update the thread when done.

Anyone started working on CM9?

Has anyone started working on getting CM9 running on any of the US versions of the SGS 3 yet?
I have begun working on it, but if someone is already farther along then I, I will let them keep at it, otherwise, I am running headlong into it.
I already have 1 kernel compiled, and prepped for testing, since I just got my phone today, I am not quite ready to start testing this just yet.

Thanks, it appears they are working on the Sprint version at this time.
I think I will begin my efforts on the AT&T version then.
Anyone who wants to help with the AT&T version PM me, and we can work together.

No problem. I'll be following your work closely for CM9 is my favorite.

I got mine preordered the day before the phone came out online at bestbuy.com. it was mailed to me today from a town 20 miles from me . Even though I hate best buy because I wanted to get a tv a few years ago and they couldn't deliver it 3 times and then I gave up.

I preordered on the 5th, the day before everybody else opened preorders.....yet i'm one of the last to get it. No real solid date yet but i'm hoping it's the 28th as rumored :fingers-crossed:

I just don't get this at all.

The Note 4 already has root which is great, however we are only half way there.
It's kinda strange that everyone is talking about all kinds of things but not a word
about custom recovery for our phones which is what we really need now.
Oh well, sooner or later we will all be talking about custom recoveries. LOL
(most likely it will be sooner)

We've had the phones for like 5 hours. Patience...

Yep, I also picked mine up from UPS because I was at work.

No one was talking about root, yet chainfire dropped one.
Perhaps if we dont talk about it....it will happen sooner than later (most likely sooner)
Beside, the phone isn't even release in store yet lol, think when it does things will start popping more than they are now

Wow. Had the phone a whole 8 hours and no recovery! Gotta tell ya, these developers are slacking off! They knew a year ago that the Note 4 would be out and they did nothing! Nothing! What do we pay these guys for? I say we dock their checks for the week. How dare they not use their knowledge of future events and have us waiting 5 days before the phone is even officially release to not have a recovery waiting for us.

Yeah, except I have been around long enough for that to be a legitimate statement. I am in the process of setting up Heimidall, so I haven't tested it. You're welcome to try, but it probably will brick your device since I won't know what needs to be adjusted until I can flash it and see where it stands.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386856 <- Same concept. That was long before CWM or TWRP had a recovery for the device. Whether or not they actually made one or simply grabbed the source when it transitioned from a port to a build, who knows. The point is that building a custom recovery only requires a copy of the stock recovery and an existing custom recovery for a device that has similar hardware. It will likely be here when you return. Toodles.
